Which manifold are you using and how much was the combined total for parts? Im planning on doing a very similar setup except I may go with the head spacer at first and upgrade from CNK later. Let me know!

maaaaannnnn, busted fpr line. i was on my way to buy the rims from uttermilk and 45 min into the drive i smell gas. i pulled over and the fpr line had popped off, so i clamped it down and went on my way. not even 5 min later i smell fuel again, i pull over to check it and sure enough, the line was split down the middle.
so with no more clamps or even a spare hose, i am stranded for about fifty-eleven hours until the tow truck arrives. the only cool thing was, uttermilk drove to where i was so i could get the rims, thanks bro.
well i am back in florida, all the hoses are fixed, car runs real strong but now the turbo has to be warrantied because a seal broke in the turbine housing and oil is leaking into my downpipe causing a little bit of white smoke but only when i first start the car, it also leaks between the downpipe and copressor between the bolts that hold the downpipe on.
i have decided to ban road trips for a while, at least till all the bugs are worked out.
